About the Item

"Untitled 2" Abstract Acrylic on Linen Painting 36" x 38" inch by Hossam Dirar Untitled 2" by Hossam Dirar Acrylic on linen canvas 2016 This work in on loose canvas, ships rolled. Can be stretched by request for extra cost ( shipping price will change). CHAOS This project is a representation of the life around me right now. All that nonsense and frivolity and chaos and unreasonableness that surround us and control every action we make, is all that I see. There are so many wars that are being fought with no ground and all these tragedies coming one by one followed by Injustice and senseless violence that was formed in our lives suddenly. And we see all that chaos in everything around us in the Arab world and it doesn’t seem to be stopping. We find distortion in the people, families and Kids. Just yesterday we had a home and a homeland, now it seems we have neither. What kind of chaos is that?​​​​​​​​​​​ ABOUT THE ARTIST Hossam Dirar is an Egyptian contemporary artist based in Barcelona, Spain.

Artists statement: The key themes of my works are the study of the natural landscape of our planet, drawing attention to environmental issues and the harmonious coexistence of man and nature. I work in mixed techniques, as I like to experiment with paints on different bases and observe how they interact with each other. Such experiments often lead me to surprising results. I most often find the phrases and captions integrated into my works in in-flight magazines, glossies, advertising campaigns and other print media. More precisely, the right phrases find me on their own at the right time when I'm working on a particular painting. Glimpsed phrases are often stored in our subconscious and sometimes serve as a trigger or set a vector of movement. Motivational phrases in paintings are like beacons that point in the right direction so as not to veer off course.
